Akashiba Yaezo and his soldiers devoured a hearty meal, with expressions of satisfaction on everyone's faces.

Akashiba Yaezo patted his bulging belly: "Thank you very much. The food is very delicious. I never thought that a small village like yours could have such delicious food."

"I don't dare to praise Taijun. As long as you are satisfied, as long as you are satisfied."

Old Wu bent down and smiled with his face, hoping in his heart that these plague gods would leave as soon as possible.

Akashiba Yaezo and several officers looked at each other, with a meaningful smile on their lips.

He and several officers dug into their pockets and took out a handful of oceans and some banknotes.

Chichai Yaezo weighed the ocean and said to Lao Wu:

"You Chinese people are very kind, and I decided to thank you very much."

Seeing the ocean in Akashiba Yaezo's hand, the villagers all looked at it with greed and expectation.

Donggou is a small village. The people in the village work hard every year and can barely make ends meet. Seeing the white ocean right in front of them, everyone is thinking about it.

Lao Wu was still wary of the Japanese, but he was shaken when he saw the ocean in Akashiba Yaezo's hands.

This meal indeed cost a lot, and a man had just died, leaving several orphans and widows. If we could really get the ocean in the hands of the little devil, we could give an explanation to the villagers.

"Don't dare, don't dare." Old Wu still refused, but his tone had softened a lot, and his eyes were looking at the ocean.

"Haha..." Chichai Yaezo smiled heartily, casually stuffed three pieces of ocean into Lao Wu's hand, and said to the surrounding villagers:

"Go and call everyone in the village, no matter adults or children. Everyone will be rewarded."

The officer beside him shook the bag in his hand, and a crisp sound came out.

Seeing that the village chief had received three pieces of ocean, the villagers subconsciously thought that the bag was full of white pieces of ocean, which was used by the imperial army to thank them.

Everyone looks at me and I look at you, they are a little hesitant, they want money but they are also afraid.

"Ding ding ding..."

Akashiba Yaezo shook the bag vigorously, "Did you hear that? It's the ocean. Don't be stunned. Go and call everyone out."

He said to Lao Wu again: "You are the village chief, you lead people to call."

Lao Wu knew that there was no way out now, so he could only take the lead and go out to gather people.

Before long, all the villagers gathered at the head of the village. There were about 180 people, old and young.

Everyone gathered together to talk, with doubts and expectations on their faces.

Akashiba Yaezo appeared swaggeringly in front of the crowd with his soldiers, still with his hands on his hands and a smile on his face.

"Taijun, everyone is here." Village elder Wu said cautiously, feeling more and more uneasy in his heart. But the little devils were holding guns, and he didn't know how to resist.

"Yoshi, you did a great job."

Akashiba Yaezo mumbled a few words in Japanese to an officer next to him. The officer nodded and left quietly.

"The men stand on the left, the women stand on the right, and the children stand next to me." Akashiba Yaezo said loudly.

The villagers seemed to have sensed the danger. They all took a few steps back and hugged their children tighter.

"Hurry up!" Akashiba Yaezo urged with a smile, but the crowd still didn't move, and Old Wu also stepped back.

Several soldiers beside Akashiba Yaezo already had angry faces, and they were about to separate the crowd with their bayonets drawn. However, Akashiba Yaezo stopped the soldiers with their hands.

"Don't be afraid. I have no other intention. I just want to express my gratitude to the kind Chinese people."

Akashiba Yaezo walked towards the crowd with a smile and gave each of the four or five children standing in front a piece of gold.

The children didn't know what the shiny things were, so they could only look at their parents for help and inquiry.

The parents had their eyes wide open and couldn't believe that the Japanese were really going to give them money. The knowledgeable people took the ocean from their children's hands and blew it to their mouths, then put it to their ears to listen.

After distinguishing the authenticity, he nodded to the neighbors around him.

"Believe me now!" Akashiba Yaezo began to seduce again, "Men on the left, women on the right, children come to me. If you continue to harass the imperial army, you will leave!"

The crowd began to move slowly, and soon they stood in three piles.

They didn't even notice that the Japanese soldiers had surrounded them unknowingly.

"Good boy!" Akashiba Yaezo smiled and touched the head of the child next to him.

The villagers stood on the edge honestly, longing for a better life behind the ocean.

There was one person who completely believed in Akashiba Yaezo. He walked out of the crowd with a smile, nodded and bowed and said to Akashiba Yaezo:

"The pigs that the imperial army just ate belonged to a small family. Can I order more..."

He rubbed his hands and looked at the ocean in Akashiba Yaezo's hand with greed on his face.

A look of contempt flashed across Akashiba Yaezo's face, and he smiled and patted the sow owner on the shoulder:

"Yoshi, no problem!"

He turned around to take the money. The sow owner suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and kept smiling ingratiatingly.

"Qiang!"

"ah!"

Akashiba Yaezo drew out his command sword at an extremely fast speed, roared violently, and struck at the sow owner.
